@redenigma foundation drainage is the next project. More digging...yay...

Minding my own business digging a posthole and this english ivy root is all like nope.

Didn't quite turn into a backhoe situation but the neighbors might have preferred it.

Friends, don't let friends plant English ivy.

@kenc313 :elbowbumper: 😷

Also do they know it's 2023? I get the sense your work can be wfh?

@HopeNotWorry
Nice username you got there, be a shame if anything happened to it.

Hope NPR trademarked it.

chatGPT has its own circuit breaker, phew: "I’m sorry but I prefer not to continue this conversation. I’m still learning so I appreciate your understanding and patience."

--after I described what would happen if I implemented it's wiring description. (arcing, fire, injury)

@DallasBarnett yeah, so maybe just try it out on someone else first. Like, a stranger or an enemy.

okay please don't rely on chatGPT for electrical wiring information. 🔥 💀 ⚰️

@JolieSaboteuse 👍
this type is just about harmless aside from swiss-cheesing wood structures. They didn't bother me and I am permissive because they're good pollinators so there are other sites here they can move into.
I've only been stung one time by carpenter bees and it was minor. Pretty lame honestly.

@jjmacnab I don't get it.* why is he not in cuffs at the end of that video.

Bring out some Philadelphia/anywhere else police, tell them Bundy's brown-skinned.

*Sadly I do.

Pushed the shed renovation forward a little with some slug help and a carpenter bee eviction (sorry little dudes) (precise holes, much impressed)

@corlin @Alfred wasn't the first on any account but I loved having Visicalc on an EPROM in a Tandy Model 100. Was badass for 1986.

@JerichoTaskerDeaux Of course.

Now in my case the trunk is "tattered dirty polyester low pile liner".

@leeloowrites Oh sure, didn't mean to imply these things are opposed.
C/should we get started right away on transparency, credit, etc. and would that help us get a handle on impacts? Like, I need to understand what sources and methods chatGPT used and didn't (transparency) before I know if I can use its work (impact).

OTOH people are using this stuff NOW so I guess you're right, we need everything all at once.

@leeloowrites Read that too. Before I get to worrying about the long term effects there are ethical issues right now and the fact that Gebru and Hinton are out at Google and [the whole ethics team afaict] are out at Microsoft is concerning:
"Instead, we should focus on the very real and very present exploitative practices of the companies claiming to build them, who are rapidly centralizing power and increasing social inequities." --Gebru
